Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004027642A2] The invention relates to a method of processing a sound field representation which can be used to provide a representation which has been modified by means of at least spatial processing. The inventive method comprises the following steps: the establishment (8) of an initial representation of the sound field and the establishment (10) of a representation which has been modified by filtering combinations corresponding to the aforementioned processing operation. The invention is characterised in that it also comprises a step (2) which consists in defining the processing operation and which comprises: a step (4) involving the establishment of a set of directivity functions, which is representative of the aforementioned processing and which takes the form of a set of coefficients corresponding to the spherical harmonic decomposition of said functions; and a step (6) in which the above-mentioned filtering combinations are determined from the decomposition so that another step (10) involving the application of the thus defined filtering combinations can be performed.
